Solution Overview

Problem

Existing display apparatuses face challenges in managing conflicts and improving user experience when setting pre-recording and post-recording times for scheduled recording tasks, leading to inefficient recording and poor user interaction.

Innovation Solution

The display apparatus includes a processor that obtains a scheduled recording task queue, queries recording time information of adjacent tasks, and adjusts task execution times to prevent conflicts by setting pre-recording and post-recording times only for upcoming tasks or all tasks, ensuring smooth execution of recording tasks.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If pre-recording and post-recording times are set for all scheduled recording tasks, then recording completeness is improved, but task conflict increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecording completenessVSAvoidtask conflict
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by automatically calculating and setting pre-recording and post-recording times for scheduled recording tasks based on adjacent task timing information. This preliminary setup ensures that recording tasks are configured to capture complete content without conflicts, resolving the contradiction between recording completeness and task conflict management.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If recording time information is queried for adjacent tasks, then task execution optimization is improved, but processing time increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetask execution optimizationVSAvoidprocessing time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system queries recording time information for adjacent scheduled recording tasks in advance during the task scheduling phase. This preliminary information gathering enables optimized task execution timing to be determined beforehand, improving productivity while minimizing processing time impact by avoiding real-time queries during execution.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system uses feedback from querying adjacent task recording time information to dynamically adjust and optimize the execution timing of scheduled recording tasks. This feedback mechanism ensures optimal task scheduling while managing processing time efficiently by leveraging the retrieved timing data for intelligent decision-making.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Reliability

If task execution time is adjusted according to adjacent tasks, then conflict reduction is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconflict reductionVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary calculation and adjustment of task execution times based on adjacent task timing information. This preliminary action automatically resolves potential conflicts by pre-configuring non-overlapping execution schedules, improving conflict reduction while managing system complexity through automated rather than manual timing adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

The disclosure provides a display apparatus and a recording method. The display apparatus can obtain a scheduled recording task queue in response to an instruction for adding a scheduled recording task; query recording time information of one or more adjacent scheduled recording tasks in the scheduled recording task queue, wherein the recording time information comprises recording start time, recording end time, pre-recording time and post-recording time; then set task execution time and/or task completion time of the scheduled recording task according to the recording time information of the one or more adjacent scheduled recording tasks; and finally, execute the scheduled recording task according to the task execution time and/or the task completion time.
